[QUOTE="perky, post: 1132242, member: 145880"] Hi All, I'm having trouble setting the folder for recordings to a NAS (also for the timeshift buffer). Currently the NAS is \\192.168.1.20\topshare and is mapped as Y: but MP appears not to be able to write to it, I can play recordings OK. I've tried various things like setting the login for TVServer to be the same as the one running MP, the permissions look OK (I've enabled all permissions for everyone on the share), the NAS is open to everyone with full permissions and no login. I can create and read files on the NAS when logged in as that user, which also has admin priveleges. Curiously MP doesn't complain, the red recording icon is displayed as normal but no recordings are made. I've read about setting UNC paths rather than mapped drive path in TVServer->Recording->Folders, however the GUI won't let me add a full path (I was hoping to use \\192.168.1.20\topshare\recordings rather than Y:\recordings).
